Plate Compactor Rentals for Asphalt, Soil & Paver Base Compaction

Plate compactors use a heavy vibrating base to compact soil, stone, and asphalt in flat layers. They're ideal for ensuring a solid foundation for hardscapes, concrete slabs, or pavement—and much faster than hand tamping.

Available Plate Compactor Features:

• Forward and reversible plate models
• Base sizes from 12" to 24"+
• Gas-powered engines (4-cycle)
• Compaction force: 2,000–9,000 lbs (depending on model)
• Water tanks for asphalt compaction (select units)
• Vibration-isolated handles for operator comfort

Common Applications:

• Sub-base prep for patios, walkways, and driveways
• Asphalt patching and edge finishing
• Paver base and leveling sand compaction
• Light-duty trench backfill (wide applications)
• Landscaping and turf edge prep

We provide clean, tuned, and job-ready compactors for both small and large projects. Whether you're a landscaper, paver installer, or contractor, we’ll help you pick the right size and style based on your material and project type.

Every Rental Includes:

• Serviced compactor, ready with fuel
• Water tank and pad options (if needed)
• Short- or long-term rental terms
• Local delivery or pickup available
• Assistance with compaction force and coverage selection

Need to pair with a rammer or concrete saw? Ask about combo packages.

A solid base means fewer problems later. Plate compactors give you consistent, even pressure that results in longer-lasting concrete, asphalt, or paver surfaces.

Reliable compaction. Easy operation. Professional results.
